TIME: 8:30AM
VENUE: OPPOSITE THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT BUILDING.
__________________________________________
A female body was lying by the tarred road that linked the school
gate to the other parts of the university. Tens of students were
standing by the dead body with pity. Traces of blood were visible from
her pink top and black jean trouser.
"I know this girl now." A guy said.
"Shut up jor. Which girl do you know? You just like setting pace
in your family sha. Don't tell me you want to be the first person to be
arrested by the police in your family." The girl beside him cut him
short.
"She was the one who screamed at Desmond's party when she saw a
dead body killed by some cultists." The guy said.
"I say shut up. Were you there when the cultist killed the girl.
How sure are you that the girl was killed by the cultist? Kunle, you are
still in 200L for crying out loud, you are two years away from becoming
a graduate. Don't spend that two years in prison o. Lets go." The girl
said holding him by the hand and dragging him away from the scene.
"I saw the guy who killed the girl at the party....."
"Kunle! Are you mad?" She asked.
"Okay o. I've heard you." He said giving up.
The two of them continued walking towards the school gate leaving other
onlookers and sympathisers behind.
Just then a group of four girl ran to the scene wailing.
"Oh my God! Daaaaaaayyyyyooooo!" Chioma screamed immediately she got
to where Dayo's dead body laid. She threw herself to the ground and
laid beside her wailing. The other three joined.
"Dayo! Please don't leave us now. We are three weeks away from our
last paper. Dayo please. We've gone far enough for you to die now.
Dayoooo." Tola cried.
The third girl, Dolapo just stood still trying to relate the scene
before her.
"Noooooooooooooooo!" Dolapo screamed and fainted. Everyone left
what they were doing and ran to Dolapo's aid.
The reason behind Dolapo's reaction was not far fetched. All her
life, she has always known pain, suffering and emotional distress. At
the age of sixteen she lost both her parent at gunpoint when some gunmen
attacked their home one night. Few months later, her father's family
members sent her out of the house accussing her of witchcraft and she
had nowhere else to go except Dayo's house, being her bestfriend. Dayo's
parent accepted her like their own daughter and treated her just the
way her late parents used to treat her. They both gained admission the
same time, all financed by her foster parents(Dayo's parents). How will
her life be now that her friend whom she refer to as her sister is dead.
Dayo is the only child of her parents who at this stage are waiting to
see Dayo graduate and get married to her long term boyfriend who works
in an oil producing company.

When she was eventually revived, she started her own version of
wailing.
"Dayo! wait for me, I must die with you. What's the essence of life
without you? What does the future hold for me. Dayyyyoooooo!
Nooooooooo." She screamed and sympathisers tried to pacify her including
her two friends who were previously wailing too.
Just then the school's security convoy drove to the scene and students
fled for their lives.
"Move back all of you." A man in their usual navy blue uniform
barked at the students.
Chioma succeeded in carrying her small statured friend, Dolapo away
from the scene. Few minutes later, the men of the Nigeria's police force
arrived with an ambulance.
"Welcome Inspectore Clement." The leader of the school's security
team said immediately Clement got down from his own car with Mike.
"When did this happen?" Clement asked.
"I guess it happened overnight." The man replied.
"Wait o! Is this not the girl that came to give us some helpful
information concerning her friend, Hadiza's death?" Clement asked no one
in particular.
"She was the one sir." Mike replied.
Clement kept quiet for a few seconds looking into space. He inhaled
deeply just then he realised he's been shedding tears.

VENUE: OPPOSITE THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT BUILDING.
_________________________________
Gradually, the crowds started dispersing after the policemen had
successfully transfered Dayo's corpse to the school's teaching hospital.
"Chioma, what is there for me to do in this life? Chioma answer me
nau." Dolapo wailed as the three friends were trekking back to their
hostel.
"Dolapo, you have to be strong. Afterall, Dayo is our friend to
but our wailing won't bring her back. I know how close you two are and
the relationship that you've built but God knows the best and I know
whosoever that did this won't go unpunished." Chioma replied in a shaky
voice as she tried to hold back the tears that threatened to spill.
Just then a cream couloured Toyota Camry parked beside them.
"Hello ladies." Inspector Clement greeted.
"Hello." Chioma replied rudely.
"I understand what just happened to you guys but I think I can be
of help in a situation like this. Let me give you a ride back to your
hostel." Clement offered.
"We appreciate your kind gesture, but our hostel is only a
stone throw from here." Chioma replied.
"If that is the case lets go there together. Am the officer in
charge of your late friends' case." Clement introduced officially.
"No problems." Chioma replied still holding Dolapo firmly like
she'll fall if left to walk on her own. That moment Chioma is her pillar
of support, how enemies become friends during trying periods. The two
of them never seem to agree on the same thing but the friendship cord is
still there waxing.
+++++Inside their room+++++
Chioma offered Clement a seat just outside their room very close to
the door on the corridor.
"Am sorry my friends won't be able to talk to you. We are all not
feeling too well, am forcing myself to talk to you." Chioma said as soon
as she sat down opposite their guest.

"Tell me the things I need to know about Dayo." Clement requested.
"She was my friend and we've been living together from the time we
gained admission. Everyone of us here met while we were in the secondary
school. Late Hadiza has lived all her life here in the south-west even
though she is from the north, I met her when I came for holidays in my
aunty who live in Lagos. I had my holiday lesson in her school. Dolapo,
Tolani and the late Oladayo all attended the same secondary school. And
the two schools are neighbours." Chioma replied.
Clement jotted somethings down.
"Tell me, when was the last time you girls had a misunderstanding?"
"We have misunderstandings alot but it is bound to happen between
friends. We can't reason alike you know?" She paused.
Clement nodded urging her to continue.
"The last misunderstanding we had was on the day whe Hadiza was
killed. Hadiza accused Tola of misplacing her eye pencil. Girl's fight
sha. You understand what I mean, don't you?"
Clement nodded.
"No matter the misunderstanding, the last thing on our minds is
getting one another killed. We don't have such minds." Chioma added.
"I didn't say that. Do you have a boyfriend?" Clement asked.
"Yes, I do." She replied.
"What about Hadiza and Dayo?" He asked.
"Dayo is engaged to a guy who works in an oil company, he do visit her here when he is in town."
"What's his name?" Clement asked.
"Emmanuel." She replied.
"What of Hadiza?" He asked.
Just then his phone vibrated. It was a text message from Sergeatn Mike.
It reads,
Sir, with the help of the school security, I was able to nab the guy whon Dayo said took Hadiza outside before she found her dead. He is our number one suspect. We need you here asap!
Clement smiled.
"I gotta run now. I'll be back later." Clement said standing up.
"See you later then." Chioma replied.
"Your number please, so I can tell you when I'll be coming." He requested. Chioma typed her number on his cell phone.
"My regards to Dolapo and Tolani. You girls have to be strong."
With this he left hurriedly.

A piece of advice to my wonderful readers.
Please don't grow to like any of th characters in this story. You know why? They can die anytime.
The story is not as bloody as you think. But expect the unexpected.
I will introduce some new characters to you in Chapter 2. You'll get to know Inspector Clement's wife, know more about our model, Sandra Oselu, know more about Barrister Ben(Sandra's lawyer) and their significance. Including some new characters.
In AudreyTimms' voice; "so many twists and turns."

@d9ty7: Why Dayo go die naw?
That's by the way. I am here for one reason. Yeah. You guessed right. The voting stuff.
D9ty7 is a few votes
away from being crowned the best writer of the month. Your votes count,
so do cast your votes now.
Follow this link and type; "I vote d9ty7" and that's it.
https://www.nairaland.com/1804027/free-n5000-writer-here-every/17.
Hope to see your votes when next I check.
Re: All In A Circle.....(A crime story) by Emzypaz(m): 11:26pm On Sep 18, 2014
I know you will all be wondering what my problem is with this best writer stuff. The reason is not far fetched.
-D9ty7 is my very good friend, not an e-friend o. We started writing at the same time but now he has overtaken me because I am yet to post any of my stories here except one that I posted and stopped.
To me, he deserves to win the award this month because, so far he's been doing well. Regular updates, wonderful stories, the one that just finished and this new one. Even if he won't win let him see your votes. The most suprising thing is that, the most active readers here are yet to vote for him. If he sees your votes, he will know he is loved on his own thread and not somewhere else.
You are asking if he'll give me out of the prize. Yes he will. I will be able to recharge my phone and start posting my stories too. lol.
Please vote for this guy.
